About This School

Montcalm Community College is a public institution located in Sidney, Michigan with approximately 1,122 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $7,280 per year. Typical graduates earn $30,900 within 10 years of enrollment.

Montcalm Community College (MCC) is a public community college in Sidney, Michigan. Founded in 1965, Montcalm Community College had an enrollment of 2,080 students in 2005.

Worth considering if you're looking to keep costs low while building toward a career or transfer — at just $4,352/year after aid and a median debt of only $9,500 at graduation, the financial risk here is genuinely minimal. That said, the median earnings of $30,900 ten years out are modest, so this makes the most sense as a stepping stone to a four-year degree or a specific local career path, not a standalone credential for high-earning fields.
